Brain Tumors may be malignant (cancerous) or benign (non cancerous). A malignant brain tumor may be further classified as either primary tumor (arises in brain tissue) or metastatic (a cancer that has spread to the brain tissue from elsewhere in the body).
Found in patients of any age, Brain tumors can begin in any part of the brain. In addition, brain tumor may also be confined to a single area or infiltrate several areas. These also vary in aggressiveness or speed of growth and must be dealt with as soon as a definitive diagnosis is made.
